CHARLES EDWARD BELL, Appellant V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 182nd District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause Nos. 1412841, 1413580

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant appeals two convictions for aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon. Appellant’s appointed counsel filed a brief in each appeal which she concludes the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. Each brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record and demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 811–13 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978).

Copies of counsel’s briefs were delivered to appellant. Appellant filed a pro se response. See Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 512 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991).

We have reviewed the records, counsel’s briefs, and appellant’s response carefully and agree each appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. Further, we find no reversible error in either record. We are not to address the merits of each claim raised in an Anders brief or a pro se response when we have determined there are no arguable grounds for review. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 827–28 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).

Accordingly, the judgments of the trial court are affirmed.
